“National Payroll Week is an ideal opportunity to thank your company’s payroll department for their hard work.
Their efforts help ensure that paychecks are accurate and on time.”

– Dan Maddux, Executive Director, APA

HOW TO INTRODUCE NPW CELEBRATIONS
AT YOUR OFFICE

Hosting a National Payroll Week celebration at your office is simple. Start by reminding your supervisor that National Payroll Week is important; not only to those in the payroll department, but to the entire company.

Take this opportunity to educate your colleagues about paychecks, the payroll withholding system, and the workings of your department. Use our NPW Information Packet to convince your supervisor to support your National Payroll Week celebration.
